Auto-Sort Stash Tabs and Auto-Loot Pet

GGG will add auto-sort stash tabs and/or auto-loot pets on store?

I explain my idea.

Auto-Sort tabs:
Will be usefull for currency/maps/cards/fragments/etc, cause will clean our inventory after any map from ALL WE WANT SAVE. Then players can check all other items one by one.
That can be added as current dedicated tabs like currency with a just "button" on each tab or directly on inventory and sort all on each dedicated tab player own on him stash.
I mean GGG can get more founds with thoose dedicated tabs and players will pay for them, like me.

Auto-loot pets:
That i think can be added on ONLY items where player ALWAYS pick up, like currency.

Like dedicated auto-sort tabs, can be added on store and will give a perfect function on pets.
Plus can add pets with "different" pick up priority for each pet, like currency, cards, fragments, maps, etc.
Players can have 2 pets at same time, so they will need choose what items will pick up automatically.

How about auto-play bot?

WTF :D

Lol no, never.

While it sounds great, i find it bad in terms of how players would go on next crazy level of speed meta and how it will be a big hit for those who do not pay for the game or paid for the only most important things like currency and map and 1 premium tabs for example.

Oh, thats nice. Would be like watching someone else playing. Like streaming. I wish I could watch someone playing the game.

Loot pet - 50% reduced movespeed.

So you can either wait twice as long for it to gather for you, or just get it yourself.

This is a fantastic idea. No QoL should come without drawbacks. This is a good one.

If everyone had something auto-looting currency and items for them, the economy would inflate. You may not realize it, but after some time, you may be clearing so fast, you stop picking up alterations, augmentations, maybe even chance and alc orbs like you used to. Many people will skip past these, because taking a moment to pick up a few low-tier orbs means saccing time that can be spent clearing the next room. Efficiency trade-off.

With an auto-looter, everyone loots all the orbs and every room gets hit. That hurts the economy.

This doesn't need to turn into Diablo 3. The current system works just fine. If you want an autolooter and auto-bot, play Clicker Heroes.

Of course GGG will do none of that. Hell, we can't even get them to add a QoL so that we can sort our tabs using the drop down tab list. It's the stupid horizontal super slow scroll method for re-arranging tabs. So every challenge league start the first thing I have to do after getting to Lioneye's Watch is to take the Currency and other specialty tabs and drag them from the end of the tabs back to the beginning (currency tab should always default to the first tab position). Same for my quad-tabs.

GGG has never wanted pets to be "mules" (like Torchlight) and will never ever do that. You can/will wish to your dieing days and that will never happen in PoE. That also would be a "pay-to-win" mtx which is another reason it won't ever be seen here. Buying stash tabs or specialty tabs to increase storage space is already debated as whether that is also "pay-to-win" so buying a "mule" capability for your pet is completely out of the question.

I 100% support GGG's policy of never having any pay to win mtx.

I think this exists, sadly.

But I get your point, and I agree. Do we rally need more automation? Like, isn't the clear speed META strong enough, without enforcing with by removing the few interactions with the environment we have?

I don't know if that was your point. It's my point, though.

The general idea isn't bad, I feel like as if they should make something for currency like what they did with azurite where it automatically floats towards you when you get closer, only do that for currency though otherwise the inventory will always be trashed... even low-tier currency like transmutes and alterations can be exchanged for other currency at vendors so it wouldn't hurt to pick them up regardless of their "uselessness" on first glance.
As for the pet, if they were to add something like that, it should be made obtainable through f2p, not through payment. The only transactions in the game up untill this point were purely cosmetic... well and more storage space, but in no way shape or form does spending money on PoE affect character builds or clearspeed and it should stay that way.

When it comes to the stash I heard someone talk about how they find it to be more useful to have each stash tab, maybe make it premiums-tabs-only, configurated individually so you get a slide-down menu for each tab that allows you to set types of loot that go to this stash-page, so for example if you set your fifth tab to "Currency" all currency based items would immediately go in there when you ctrl-click them, no matter which page of your stash you are actually displaying at the time.
